Real Madrid and Barcelona fight in shock for the transfer of Bruno Fernandes from Man Utd – Paper Round

Bruno Fernandes is the target of an ambitious transfer from both Barcelona and Real Madrid despite signing for Manchester United in January, according to a report from the Sun. The La Liga giants are set to take on the Portuguese international after he was rumored to have had a fight with Red Devils manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer during the club’s 6-1 loss at home to Tottenham Hotspur. Fernandes was substituted at halftime during the loss and was reportedly involved in a heated fight in the locker room during halftime.

Paper Round’s opinion: Surely it cannot be true. Fernandes has just joined United and has been their best player by one mile since his transfer from Sporting Lisbon in January. The club is building a talented squad and the 26-year-old is vital to its future plans. There will always be arguments during tough losses, especially in the best clubs with players who have a winning mentality. It is normal and probably even a good thing. After the Barcelona summer, it would be hard to see them pay off a player of Fernandes’s value and Real Madrid seem to have their eyes set on French superstar Eduardo Camavinga. This rumor is probably not a cause for concern to United fans.

Manchester United have extended Paul Pogba’s stay at the club by activating the 12-month extension on the Frenchman’s contract, according to the Mail. Pogba’s current deal was initially scheduled to expire next summer, which would have allowed him to enter talks with foreign clubs starting in January, but the Red Devils were able to extend their £ 290,000-a-week deal until 2022. The 27-year contract – The old man recently admitted that it was his personal dream to play for Real Madrid one day and that He hadn’t even opened initial discussions about signing a new contract at Old Trafford.

Paper Round’s opinion: Manchester United likely did not open contract extension talks with Pogba because they knew they were going to activate the one-year extension clause in his current contract. The World Cup winner has been inconsistent since his return to Old Trafford in 2016 for a world record rate. However, it seems that United still have faith in him. The Red Devils are clearly building a team that they hope will become Premier League challengers and they will need Pogba for that. It would make sense to start engaging in contract talks with the French midfielder as soon as possible so that there is no danger of being in a difficult situation around this time next year.

Mesut Ozil is scheduled to be fired from Arsenal’s Premier League team just one week after missing the Europa League Gunners roster. According to the Sun, the 31-year-old will not sign up for the Premier League due to the club’s bloated team from North London. Ozil, Sokratis Papastathopoulos and William Saliba all ran out of places in the Europa League squad and the German is likely to miss out once again despite being the club’s highest paid player, earning £ 350,000 per week. Ozil’s last appearance with Arsenal was on March 7, before Covid-19 disrupted the Premier League season.

Paper Round’s opinion: It is a real nightmare for Arsenal. The guy is your highest paid player. He’s making £ 350,000 a week, but he won’t be playing a minute for the Gunners in the Europa League or Premier League this season. Ozil’s contract expires next summer, but the club needs to find a way to get him to leave in the January transfer window. It is strange from the outside because the German was in good shape before the 2019-20 season was halted due to Covid-19 and has not appeared since. Whatever happens, it’s a huge waste of money for the North London club and it’s a waste of talent that won’t show anytime soon.

UEFA President Aleksander Ceferin has reiterated that he is confident that the European Championship will definitely take place next summer, but the venue situation could be modified if necessary due to Covid-19. The competition was delayed a year due to the pandemic and is still scheduled to be hosted by 12 different European cities, despite rising infection rates across the continent. Ceferin admitted that plans could be changed and the tournament could even end up being hosted by a single country.

Paper Round’s opinion: It would be heartbreaking for football fans who had match tickets all over Europe, but it makes sense. No one knows what the world will be like in eight months and whether or not there will be a vaccine to combat Covid-19. If it is necessary to reduce the number of hosts or even if there needs to be a country to host the entire tournament, fans will be grateful that it goes ahead. There is still a long way to go, so anything could happen before next June.
